2012 Family Favorites Winners
Hey readers! Here are results of our third annual Family Favorites Awards Contest. More than 2,600 of you logged on this summer and voted for your favorites.
Congratulations to these businesses that you voted as your Family Favorites.
And we want to SEE you enjoying your favorites around town, so this month we are launching our “Family Favorite Scavenger Hunt” photo contest.
All you have to do is one of your favorite things.
Each Thursday in October we will announce a photo challenge on our web site and on our Facebook page and Twitter.
We will pick one of our Family Favorites categories and ask you to go to your favorite place that fits that category and take a photo of yourself or your family.
Upload the photos to LexingtonFamily.com by the following Wednesday and you could be one of our weekly winners or our Grand Prize Winner!
